Moscow threatened on Sunday to "intensify" its strikes on Kyiv in response to attacks carried out by Ukraine with drones on the day of the Russian legislative elections.

In a statement by the Russian Ministry of Defense, it was stated, "In response to the attacks by the Kyiv regime against civilian targets on Russian territory, the Russian Armed Forces will continue to intensify their strikes using high-precision weapons against military targets in Kyiv," accusing Ukraine of seeking to "thwart the democratic expression of the will of the Russian people."
